When you do something beautiful and nobody noticed, do not be sad. For the sun every morning is a beautiful specatle and yet most of the audience still sleeps.

Treat your kid like a darling for the first five years. For the next five years, scold them. By the time they turn sixteen, treat them like a friend. Your grown up children are your best friends.

If you do not change direction, you may end up where you're heading.

The world 'out there' won't change until the world 'in there' does.

Money won't make you happy, but everybody wants to find out for themselves.

Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired and success achieved.

The gem cannot be polished without friction nor man without trials.

The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don’t wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.
